The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container lying at the rear of your garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in East Riding of Yorkshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, providing we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important matter to take care of in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel is going to produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations pretty expediently.

Remember that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Preston - Wrong Fuel in Car Preston

I had a wonderful evening hiking on my holiday and was feeling cheerful with myself the next working day as I set out to help a new couple who were holidaying in Preston. They'd pulled over after putting the wrong fuel in their mint green Chrysler PT Cruiser, and were roughly an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the gal telling off her man for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you actually find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this comes to pass frequently in East Riding of Yorkshire and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, even so he still had an ear bashing. Poor chap. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I shouted good-bye and wondered what my missus would do to me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever live it down!

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
